Calories 125 kcal
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup finely chopped shallots
- 1 cup dry red wine
- 1 cup beef broth
- Salt to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Add the shallots and sauté until they are translucent and slightly golden, about 3-4 minutes.
Pour in the red wine and increase the heat to bring to a boil. Allow the wine to reduce by half, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
Add the beef broth and continue to simmer the mixture until it reduces by half again, about 5 minutes more.
Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. For a smoother sauce, you can strain it through a fine mesh sieve before serving.
